"Glimpses of Other Realities, Vol. II: High Strangeness" and its companion "Volume I: Facts & Eyewitnesses" are full of photos, drawings, documents and accounts from lots of eyewitnesses with detailed footnotes that explain sources and historic details. I don't think there are any other books like these in the world that show so much in color and well researched documentation about the animal mystery, crop circles, abducted people and what government insiders say. "Military Voices" in Volume II has some of the most important scientific and firsthand accounts by people who served the U. S. government that I've ever seen anywhere. And there are more documents to back up their accounts in the big Appendices that really make you sit up and think. Both volumes are two of the most amazing books I've ever seen and read.

I've always found Linda Moulton Howe to be a very thorough and professional journalist. She documents her story as much as is possible here. ...

Anyway, what startled me the most were her eye-witness reports that we are merely soul containers and that David Bohm had nailed it when he determined that our reality is largely illusory, and that the universe is akin to a hologram.

To get the whole gist of these theories you'll have to read the book. As someone who has seen photos taken by friends of real cattle mutilations in norther New Mexico (I know, it's hard to believe), LMH has followed that story to astonishing conclusions.

Let's hope that we are ready, as individuals, and as a species, to apply the knowledge we've learned and will learn.

Ms. Howes' book leaves you not only wondering, but also guessing about what is very wrong in this world,when and why the government cannot or will not come clean, it is a book to open your eyes. All you have to do is truly open them.

This is one of the best books on the subject. The intricate detail in which Ms. Howe writes is exhaustive, yet never boring. She actually reminds me of Scully without Mulder. I think this and David Jacobs book "Threat" are most likely to contain the best clues as to what is to come. This book should not be underestimated.

In the first half-century of Ufology, there has been no one like her. Not Hynek, not Vallee, not Fowler, not Hopkins, not Jacobs. We are speaking of Linda Moulton Howe. If she does not write another word, the books she has already written will go down in history as the finest and most comprehensive expositions of the UFO mystery ever done, surpassed by none. She creates much of what the rest of Ufology pushes off against; others argue the merits or demerits of HER casework, and much of whatever advances are made in our understanding of the subject, are made from integrating her research into already-existing evidence and understanding. In HIGH STRANGENESS, we have a four-course banquet of delicacies: first, a good helping of 'military voices,' in which testimony dating back to Donald Keyhoe and the 1950 Farmington, New Mexico saucer armada are revisited, along with other more current testimonies; then, a serving of animal mutilations with side dishes of light beams and UFOs; next, a platter of Jim Sparks, garnished with expert and fascinating analysis by Dr. Mario Pazzaglini of the 'alien script' and symbolism given by the aliens to Sparks; followed by a long final section which presents 3 abduction experiences from which some ideas may be gleaned regarding the motives behind the modern abduction epidemic, as revealed by the aliens themselves. A long document section backs up the suspicion that the government operates a UFO investigation program at levels far beyond anything like its outward disinterest in the subject indicates. Upon reaching this point, the reader really IS feeling stuffed. ...If anything, we are left with the distinct notion that there are a multitude of solutions to what we call 'The UFO Enigma.' It is more than an enigma, and it will take the efforts of many more Linda Howes to bring us closer to ! a general understanding of what it is our species really confronts when it encounters aliens - in the skies, on the highways, or coming right through the walls to take still more humans into their merciless world. I've said this before about Linda Moulton Howe's books and it still holds: Nobody has presented the PROBLEMS created by the alien presence in a more convincing manner. This volume should be studied for centuries to come."

Having read over 100 similar books, I can say that this is the best. If this were available earlier, I could have skipped the others. More information and explanations can be found here than any other 20 books on the subject, combined.

You have to give the author credit for taking the chances to present material that initially would seem ridiculous. Only after sifting through the research do you begin to grapse the plausibility of the matter. I hope she follows this up soon with some more strangness. Excellent.

It is amazing that persons in this tiny little world still think that "we are it" in this universe and that anything else is still science fiction. Open your eyes, read this book, and get a education that just scratches the surface of what our government continues to deny. Do you really think that the Clinton scandal is just a little lie - a lie by our president, to our faces, waving his kittle finger in our face, about something so trivial as sex? Wait until discovery hits, and we discover a lie so big, it will be from out of this world. Get the facts and wake up to the lies that Linda uncovers. Be prepared. Our government is not going to help you understand this subject. Learn it here from Linda - Thank You Linda.

Author Howe's extensive experience as a reporter shows in her eye for good stories-not sensational stories, but stories that are compelling and rich in informative detail. Her respect for the people who have experienced the events documented in Glimpses of Other Realities, Vol. II: High Strangeness and for the facts of these cases leads her to present these events largely through records of her interviews with these people and, in some cases, through their drawings as well. This combination results in a number of riveting accounts that simply cannot be accommodated by the terms on which most of us address the world but which cannot simply be dismissed. Among a broad range of material exhibiting high strangeness, these accounts of highly strange experiences by the people who experienced them have been, for this reader, the most demanding of serious attention to the questions, "What is going on, and why?" Ms. Howe is to be commended for bringing these stories to us in such a direct and uncompromising way.

Linda Howe is a friend. I read her newest book both in manuscript and in final form, and must applaud her for her efforts to shed some light on the darker parts of this complex world we live in. Adopting a head in the sand stance, as most do about these phenomena, will not make them go away. If we ever truly want to understand the "high strangeness" of the universe we live in, we must face these unusual events that Linda has devoted her life to studying. Linda is a serious researcher, and she is nobody's fool. This book is a very important contribution to the scientific study of reality, and I highly recommend it to anyone whose mind is not closed to alternative views of our universe.
